LAGOS, Nigeria – Billionaire blogger, Linda Ikeji was not born with a silver spoon. She is more or less like you and almost everybody struggling very hard to make a living. She has seen tears and pains of suffering in want and has decided to pass words of encouragement to you who is struggling, thinking there is no hope that you can make it.
For her, the keyword is never give up and to fight poverty with everything you have.
As she puts it, “this smile is gratitude for how far I’ve come. For all the dreams that came through. For all the things I am grateful for and for all the amazing things that’s about to happen (which will be announced soon).
“This smile is to encourage you not to give up on yourself no matter how hard it gets and to encourage you to fight poverty with everything you are. The view from where I am standing is amazing and I’d like for you to experience it. May your legit hustle pay off…and soon. Amen”, she said.

I was 16. I was standing there watching the insult being hurled and a little assault over N70. I saw the sadness and embarrassment as they saw I was witnessing it. They told me to leave but I refused and stood there and watched.
After it was over I told myself as I walked home in tears; in this life, except there’s no God, nobody will ever insult them again over money. I don’t care how long it will take, but I will fight poverty with everything in me. The following year at 17 after I finished secondary school, I started my hustle.
